bloomingOUT - December 3, 2009

IU sociology doctoral student and activist scholar Abigail Sewell works to create safe spaces for black same-gender loving folks on college campuses. Sewell talks about the inherent institutional mistrust of marginalized groups such as blacks and other non-white ethnic/racial groups as well as those who are LGBTQI. Michiana activist and organizer Linda Bentz describes the efforts of the Human Rights Campaign in obtaining firm legislative support for ENDA in Indiana and also highlights upcoming social events sponsored by the GLBT Resource Center of Michiana. Our featured musical artists are the Quarryland Men’s Chorus with two live tracks from their December 2007 concert. Quarryland will be performing at the Bloomington United Church of Christ this coming Sunday at 3 pm. bloomingOUT also features the latest in national and international queer headline news and a community calendar highlighting local and regional events of interest to the queer community and our allies.
